Run to the hills
Capcom hasn't had the best of luck with multiplayer this generation.

Hands On Resident Evil 3 Does the PSone Classic Proud
I'll give you S.T.A.R.S.

News DOOM Eternal's TV Ad Is Being Torn Apart for Its Shocking Lack of Metal Music
Rightly so
What do you think of when you think of DOOM? Demons, big mad guns, blood-soaked hellscapes, brutal action... And thumping metal music, obviously.

Review Two Point Hospital - Management Sim Is a Worthy Successor to Theme Hospital
Sick
Theme Park proved that big business could be big fun, and its spiritual successor Theme Hospital became something of a cult classic that kids from the era continue to quote even today.

One big console community
MMORPG Black Desert, which launched last year on PlayStation 4, will be getting cross-play functionality on the 4th March 2020.
